Me. I’ve seen too many kids nearly knocking people over, flying through busy intersections without looking, tearing around blind corners, and generally terrorizing my neighborhood. They’re the perfect combination of immature and fast.
How do they feel about electric scooters?
Meh, as long as they’re not blowing through intersections and almost causing accidents, they’re okay.
overlap between people who hate this and people who hate bikers in general.
Probably a very big overlap, but at least normal bicycles aren’t as efficient at facilitating teen idiocy.
Obviously irresponsible riding should be discouraged or penalized. But imagine the same people driving cars and you’ll see why we don’t want to discourage e-bikes.
